Re: Excellent instrumentals...Aug, 68 |
Well, it's a fresh day, and a new start, so we'll all move on from any and all residual feelings of betrayal (?) and alienation that might have come about thru various rants, raves, and stands on principle...you, as usual, were a perfect gentleman, but I for one get hot under the collar a little too easily...after all, it's me, alone, against the Powers of 73, so I stand with bow and bolt and apple, and let fly now and again.
As to your request, I am afraid I dunno; I feel awkward bout sending commercial releases myself, not that I really see eye to eye with Bob and his college kids (haven't they dropped out yet?), but yu get the idea...anyone else know what might be done?

Re: Excellent instrumentals...Aug, 68 |
People do seem to get worked up real easy when discussing the GD. I'm on your side about 1973; there's just not enough edge(or energy) that year, although I'm not denying that the music was good, just not my preferred listening. As I commented the other day I feel the same about 1976. It's just too slow for me, although there are always shows in those years that I do like a lot (11-11-73 or 10-15-76). Today I'm listening to a show you may have attended, 9-28-75. Grendel does not show any love in his review and yet I like it better than OFTV.
BTW, I'm not looking for a copy of the commercial release unless it's permitted. In many cases there's a legal download available (such as 2-14-68) and I wasn't sure about these.
